What power do they have?  The power to influence many
people as much as any religion, race and/or language. 
Funny thing is that is any organization that wants to
become a "fundamental" recognition has to understand
that there will be followers and to understand the
general thinking of others.  This is so important it's
beyond belief.  You don't make a movement without a
great cause. Whether the Vatican is involved or not
should not be an issue.

People lead not religion.

Just an opinion
